With the season finale of The Strain finally upon us, FX has released its latest behind-the-scenes featurette. Based on the bestselling Dark Horse Comics series, visionary director Guillermo Del Toro, Corey Stoll (Ephraim Goodweather) and co-writer Chuck Hogan discuss "The Master's Minions."

In our recent recap, Nora Martinez (Mía Maestro) and Eph (Stoll) sent out a message about the vampire plague. While audiences were watching the graphic video of their autopsy of a bloodsucker, Thomas Eichorst (Richard Sammel) launched an attack on Abraham Setrakian's (David Bradley) pawn shop. Nora was unable to save her mother from the vampire's stinger.

As we've discussed, The Master has been around for centuries, but he couldn't have done it without some assistance. Eichorst (Sammel) has served the vampiric overlord since World War II.

Del Toro describes billionaire Eldritch Palmer (Jonathan Hyde) in the video as "The third richest man in the world, who is really an ancient guy. He knows he has very little time to live. He makes an unholy alliance, in order to gain more life."

With Palmer making a Faust-like deal with The Master, what will be the price on his head for destroying humanity?

Stoll explains in the video what makes The Master such a deadly adversary: "This story has more than just one bad guy. Everybody he turns into a vampire is scary and dangerous."

Previously, in the trailer for the season finale, entitled "The Master," Vasiliy Fet (Kevin Durand) and Eph find themselves lost in the vampire's nest. Though they have uncovered the coffin, Nora is actually fighting for her life against The Master. Will they be too late to save her?

The season finale of The Strain airs Sunday on FX at 10 p.m. Readers, are you excited to see what happens in "The Master"? Comment below!
